How do you know that? What has Dak accomplished in 8 years? What scares you so much from moving on from him? Every season ends the same. Only it's much worse now because Dak wants paid. With your plan we are going no where. Exactly where we have been for 8 years.
When I look at the playoffs the last couple of years and see all the starting QB's younger than Dak I get sick. Those teams are trying to win. They are making moves. Some QB's are on their 2nd teams and making the playoffs. Meanwhile we just sit still and watch the world go by. DUMB.
because there's a lot of history that getting too or winning the super bowl is very difficult. i know people don't want to go over this as a comp but Peyton manning drafted 1998 , first SB was in 06/2007 was regular season KING but 3-6 to start his playoff career.. Indy waited 9 YEARS and were patient and finally got the team right and Manning got his Career narrative back on track., many talked about him like dak and PM was far worse in making mistakes ie TD-INT ratio was reckless with the ball at times etc etc...
also, somehow you have qbs like Farve and brees play 19 that NINETEEN years to only have one SB WIN umm they don't grow on trees the brady and Mahomes are outliers, not blueprints to nfl success when it comes to SBs. Many others like say Stafford took leaving and year 13 to get his. a lot of qbs didn't get their big game wins until after year 8 or longer. even Elway needed a better team to win it all..yes they got there but took hof rb and more shall i say Elway friendly offense to add to great d etc to actually win it..
i said this before they're far longer droughts in the nfl and sports in general than the cowboys are experiencing. Thats why not saying the FO should be that patient, but most data support the grass isnt always greener trying to get rid of very successful qb to make change for the better,20 teams in the league fight yearly to hover at 500 or below.
sure, blow it up to what win the draft and offseason but take 5 years to get back to regularly being in the playoffs like we are now.
this is team issue not qb issue its bigger than that and if they can just have a year where it comes together in all phases, well we have seen it, streaks finally busted after 60 years , 51 years etc etc.
look we all know the dallas cowboys have had a multitude of reasons it's not really the QB as the largest issue, it is expecting the qb to be perfect to make sure he covers up 14 penalties, poor refs, bad play calls, bad gameplans, no run game, OL inconsistent, and yes we have seen bad defense. Daks not off the hook he couldn't overcome pressure of bad teams but far worse areas OF TEAM Play to be blaming the qb all the time.
Thats a fact we can at least agree on no matter who well the offense or Dak would have played last game, would have taken like 35-32 type effort and might have still lost as the D sucked bigtime from the first snap to the last! they wanted or expected Prescott to play like the Seattle game and hope to hold on for win in shootout!! teams typically dont win when their defense plays like that but they should win say like the ravens d played in the playoffs and the rs, one guy gets an mvp with the best d, best run game production and can't score10 points and the other is to blame for his teams' deficiencies.
each playoff game was lost differently, most were a breakdown in many areas and the qb wasn't the real main breakdown.
